on old or non-judicial rents.
The tenants on the Scott estate, whose
appeal for IS per cent. reduction on the
present rents has been ignored by the
agent and landlord, assembled in Kill

marched to the Munster and Leinster
banks, out of which they drew the rents,

A Girl SIS a Car Conductor.

An Ausonian yonng lady had occa-

culiar circumstances. In company with
another young lady she was riding
from Birmingham, and by mistake in
depositing fares for both dropped a
quarter of dollar into the box whence
no change comes. The quarter jingled
the glass sides with an unusually loud
sound that caused the dryer to take
his eyes off the road for an istant and
place them in the direction of the fare
box. AS his optics caught sight of the
quarter settling itself down the glass
toboggan they also noticed all out

lady, and his ears heard the familiar
sound of "Change please" The Jehu
explained away all thoughts that the
young lady had of ever getting her ID

best way he saw was for her to collect
three fares from the passengers as they
entered the car. Accordingly the
young lady, as any sensible person
would do, bided her time, and from a
trio who boarded The car collected the

He Swallowed an Eel.


A Buffalo special relates the follow
ing Henry Steiner coughed up
nineteen ounce eel this afternoon
tainted when he saw 1t, and is now In
a very weak condition, but out of
danger. The eel is sixteen inches long
aud a perfect fish, with the exception
of the eyes which are wanting, The
mouth is very long and shaped like
that Of o sucker fish.
Last December Steiner, who Is a
wood carver, thirty .one years old, drew
q pail of water from the city hydrant
on Lemon street, near his house, and
drank a glassful. In swallowing he
felt lump about the size of hazelnut
pass down his throat. Two months
later he began to suffer the most terri
BILE cramps and stomach pains, which
have continued until to-day. Doctors
treated Steiner successiyelyfor neuralgia
of the heart, gastritis, dyspepsia and
tapeworm, administering morphine
when the pain was severest. A week
ago the strongest emetic failed of ef-
feet.
Steiner became convinced that he
had tapeworm, and by the advice OF
his mother-in,law bought a quart OF
whiskey yesterday and went to bed
drunk. This noon when he arose he
was in terrible agony, aud about two
O'Clock the eel appeared from his
mouth, head first. The fish was coy
cred with q slimy mucus from the
membrane of the stomach and did not
lacerate the throat. 1t was in torpid
condition when placed in water, but
soon wriggled around and lived four
hours.

most remote parts OF the world. Its
merits are proclaimed hy the consum-
ers, as well as the vendors. Miss

TO CHOOSE a WIFE.
The Author Knew Very Little About 1t

entitled How to Choose IA WIFE The
rules that the dear old man laid down
would work well in buying Christmas
turkey, but the essayist knew little of
the intricacies of female character or he
would haye realized how easy 1t was TO
simulate the attributes which he con-
sidered necessary for perfect wife.
Tenderness is one Of the virtues that
any stone-hearted coquette can affect.
The ancient divine had evidently walt

the desirability of expedition in matters
of the toilet. l once knew girl who
would go TO her room at two O'Clock
and make every preparation for elegant
street attire-all but putting on her hat.
That was because at five o'clock she
was going to drive with an ancient
adorer whom she wanted 10 catch.
Over all her paraphernalia she put a
touching loose wrapper. William Hen
ry would arrive.
'Oh my goodness y would cry the
deceitful fair one, Il didn't dream it
was so late, but III be ready in one

Then, to the surprise and delight of
the gentleman, she would return in no
time, putting on her gloves, and he
would subsequently tell his friends that
no girl who ever lived could dress as
quickly as his Mary Ann. He married
her, and during the honeymoon he dis
covered the fraud. The crlmping OF
the expeditions dresser's hair was the

RUINED BY RASCALITY.
The Cashier of the st. Louis National
Bank Under Arrest.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 10.-Developsments
in the Fifth National bank suspension
show fraud aud forgery, and the cashier
{. G. Crecillius, is now under arrest,
and charged with false entry and
forgery. President Henry Overstoltz
would have been arrested if not on his
deathbed. He died yesterday after
noon. He was formerly mayor OF this
city.
1t is reported that on the books the
figures of n 1re than fifty entries haye
been changed. 1t is further charged
that on two occasions Crecilius' reports
to the bank directors were false. Gre
cilius was interested in five concerns
which the bank was carrying in sums
ranging from $50. 900 to $4,000 each
without security.
